TinyOS uses GCC as its backend; the resulting binaries are in the ELF
format.  THere are several revisions of GDB that understand ELF (see
http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~mdw/proj/tmote-gdb/ for details); there
are also notable exceptions, such as the GDB that is distributed with
TI's Code Composer  (it only knows about COFF binaries).

Also make sure that you feed to GDB the main.exe rather than main.ihex
or derivatives.

Cheers,

Rob
